aRedMoon August 27th, 2004 5:38 AM

Oops... I forgot one... *adds to end of the list*

Upstairs Computer <-- REALLY nice, runs on XP
Sister's Computer <-- Eh, it sucks. Runs on 98SE
Brother's Computer <-- Supposed to work excellent, but sucks as my brother has screwed it over. Runs on XP
My Computer <-- Can do everything but run videos. ^-^ Runs on XP.
BBS Server <-- Can't do anyhting on it because it's a "working" computer, it uploads stuff every 5 minutes and runs a BBS Server. Runs on XP.
Linux Server <-- Really fast and fun to play with. Though the resolution is like 600 x 400. X_x Runs on RedHat Linux 9
Computer in the making Computer <-- Being made. OS not determined.
Comadore (sp?) Computer <-- Old thing that works perfectly. XD Runs on C64 (Is that considered an OS?)
TTY Computer <-- My brother's old computer... X_X Used for the TTY, as the program doesn't support XP. Runs on 95.

©H®Ï§ August 27th, 2004 5:50 AM

Oh yeah! I forgot that I have 3 more screwed up comps!

1. Plain Computer! Win 95 --- Takes 20 minutes to open a 20 KB file! (Sucky)
2. Laptop --- Screwed up so hard, that the screen may fall off!
3. Plain Computer 98SE --- The keyboard is broken. Only has the A, B and D buttons! Other ones a broken. The screen has cracks in it!

^^Those computers are in the attic for more than 6 years!

Eliana August 27th, 2004 9:07 AM

Oh....XD my other computer is slow but its fine lol

Sayuri no Hoshi August 27th, 2004 9:30 AM

Well, I'm going to say three; because, those are the ones that are actually working and the ones we use on a daily basis, lol.

- My laptop ... It's a Toshiba with Windows XP Home Edition.
- My Dad's computer ... Uh, all I know is that it has a LCD screen monitor and that it has Windows XP Professional on it.
- My Dad's other computer ... This one resides in the basement that he uses from time to time and it's a blueberry iMac.

My Dad also has a lot of other computers around (mostly monitors and other systems), but it's only because he has a security and other various random electronics business so he picks 'em up whenever or wherever he can.

Arcanine August 27th, 2004 11:55 AM

Lets see what I got.
1 HP Laptop
1 HP Desktop
1 Compaq Laptop
1 Compaq Desktop
1 Averatec Laptop
2 Old Dell Desktops
And 1 old Desktop I forgot the name of it.
We tossed out two old computers and sold another two. So if we still had all them then I would have 12 computers here.
And for my birthday I want a a Laptop with wireless internet so I can move around with it.

Eliana August 27th, 2004 12:00 PM

Wow o_0 thats a lot also.....XD

aaaaaa August 27th, 2004 2:48 PM

Three main boxes.
This, my P4.
A Barton in the corner of my Room that doesn't do much of anything.
And I'm pretty sure there's a 'nix box kicking around here somewhere.

Kairi August 27th, 2004 2:51 PM

We have…ahh, four. Nothing compared to JK’s residence, in fact I think I would now be scared to enter it. o_o;
Old, old computer, AKA Final Fantasy Box—this one was my first PC. I was a total noob back then (Hey I was…10, maybe?) I didn’t even grasp basic computer stuff and I didn’t when I quit using it, so I have no idea of the specs. It’s old though. Even had comet cursor. XP Ahh, so it still runs FFVII and VIII the best of any of our computers, has a voodoo…what did they call them, booster card? O_o; Hmm. It’s a Gateway, it’s bad, it runs 98.

The “old” computer. Located downstairs at the end of the stairs, this computer was in my room until last December. And I hated sharing it, I’d always lose it and my mom would stay on for hours. ._.; It was a Gateway too, and though I’m filled with bad memories of it failing me…I guess I kinda have to thank it. I broke it a lot. It screwed up, a lot. Gateway had useless tech support. So with one option left, I learned computers so I could fix it myself. And I did learn, with a little help from my cousin who gave me my first XP disc, and watching some TV shows, and I just began to experiment. And…as I said, I broke a lot of stuff while learning. o_o; I won’t go into the details, but I did some dumb stuff. So, then I became decently geeky which led me to buy…

“This computer”! Yay! This one is all nice, and totally mine. I’d go into the specs, but I know Sarah would come around and mock my stock processor with her overclocked-water-cooled uber system. <<;

Timbjerr August 27th, 2004 4:28 PM

-one in my room
-One on my brother's room
-One in my parents' room
-Two in the office, one running on Windows and one running on Linux. My dad works on them a lot to test things
-A downstairs laptop
-A laptop that will be bestowed unto me next year (until then, I'm holding it in my room as a backup)
-two or three in the garage that my dad got from friends and family that he repairs for extra cash for the family.

so that's 9-10 in total...

*~Ashley~* August 27th, 2004 4:40 PM

In my house we have 4 computers... which I thought was a lot until I just read how many a lot of you guys have. Anyways we have 2 desktops and 2 laptops. I don't know what kinds they are and I'm too lazy to look. The two desktops are downstairs next to each other. One was for me to use and the other was my dad's. My dad also has a laptop which he used to bring to work to watch movies when he was doing some guard duty thing. I used to use his laptop sometimes too. Because I had to get off the desktops by 10pm I decided to buy my own laptop in April and that's the computer I use all the time now.

Charizard Master August 27th, 2004 5:41 PM

Lets see I have 6 my dad a computer person so we have alot

Crimson King August 27th, 2004 11:16 PM

aaaaaa August 28th, 2004 3:53 PM

If I had a set of overclocked Opteron 842's with Watercooling, *then* I would mock thee with the stock clocked proc.
But I don't, so be proud of your box Abby XD

Fox_Die August 28th, 2004 3:59 PM

4 computers:
-1 laptop - Toshiba.
-3 desktops - Dell, Tiny & Sony.

ravenstorture August 28th, 2004 4:00 PM

My mom has two laptops and we have two desktops, which only one has internet and the one I am currently on has cable high speed. But my parents are getting me and my sister our own comp with cable high speed soon, so then we will have five.

Cassie-chan August 28th, 2004 4:20 PM

I have 2...on at my dad's and one at my moms...

Ryoutarou August 28th, 2004 4:24 PM

Dark Magician August 28th, 2004 4:33 PM

eevee_evolutions August 28th, 2004 7:22 PM

Sakura and Espeon August 28th, 2004 7:47 PM

Over 5. 1 HP Desktop Computer, 1 HP Laptop, 1 old IBM Desktop, 1 Dell Desktop Computer and 1 Dell Laptop Computer. *sighs*

Too much computers... o.o

^^NICK^^ v.3.0 August 28th, 2004 7:56 PM

I have two, but only one (my Dell) is hooked up. The other is in my shed, old and slow. I used to have a MAC when my uncle lived with me, but it was his. I loved it very much, I think MACs look better and have better graphics than Dell, and others, but they're still cool. But my uncle moved, and no more MAC.

Pichu2 August 29th, 2004 5:53 PM

2 computers (one in my room and one in my brothers' room) (Unfair, I'm not an admin in mine...)
2 laptops (1 each for my 2 brothers)

Splashing Mew August 30th, 2004 10:41 PM

Kairi September 7th, 2004 10:31 AM

I’m the only one who gave really neat stories with hers, c’mon share… X3
A funny incident, a heart warming moment? Or perhaps I’m just a weirdo who happens to be bonded to the computer too much. XP At least this is the first computer I don’t get scared it won’t work. o_o;

Cherrim September 10th, 2004 1:28 PM

We should have three, but instead of giving me the really old computer, my parents gave it to my old babysitter who used to watch me afterschool everyday when we lived in Halifax. <_<; So we have two.

The one I normally use just... broke last night. I'm completely useless (at the moment) when it comes to computers, so I couldn't say exactly what happened, but it won't read the hard drive at all... so chances are fairly high it'll have to be wiped or we'll have to buy a new disk. =\ That one has run Windows ME for a long time and it really sucks, even though we refer to it as the "new" computer - it isn't new, it's just newer than the other one. My dad said last night that it has 30 gigs of space, but I know for a fact it can only have 20 gigs max. <_<; If not, I want my 10 gigs back. (And even then, I want all my files back more! ><) It also has very little... RAM do you call it? So it crashes constantly since I always have way too many programs open... and it can't handle very many. =\ I dunno anything about the... processor it has. <_< I really miss it right now, since my dad can't fix it as he left for a fishing trip this morning. ;_; So right now I'm stuck with...

The old computer. This thing has like... 7 gigs of space or something. o_O And at least 5-6 gigs of that is filled up with programs from my youth... like the Magic School Bus games. <3 Bah... even though it's much older, it's actually better - the only reason I don't use it is because the desk it's on makes it a little uncomfortable to use (along with the fact that we have to use this stool to sit on x_X) and because (until recently, I suppose) all my files were on the other computer. This one runs Windows 2000 Professional and only needs to be restarted... every few weeks? And even then, that's only because it needs to be turned off because of fluctuating power surges due to storms and for when we install new software and it tells us to restart, so I dunno if that counts. o_O; It's pretty fast and I also think it has more memory than the other computer since my dad installed quite a bit last year whereas the new memory wouldn't work on the newer computer. Again, I don't really know much else about this. =\

Was that long enough for you, Abby? =o

Stevo-kun September 10th, 2004 1:45 PM

inmy house all together there is 3 Comps all on the net and 1 laptop

Pokemon_Veteran

Kairi September 10th, 2004 1:49 PM

See, this is why Erica is to be revered. =x *hugs*
Hey, you have more space on even the bad one than I do my really old one, I think it has 4 gigs or something. XP
Sounds like you should have had your files on that one and moved it somewhere easier to use. o_o; the restarting would have driven me mad. x_x

Cherrim September 10th, 2004 1:57 PM

I think the reason this one is in such an annoying location is because they both share the same internet. I know hooking them both up to the same connection can be done regardless of where they are in the house, but it's probably just easier if they're side by side. So of course, the newer computer gets the good desk which has a spot for the scanner, printer, and a sliding thing for the keyboard, but this older desk is really small, the monitor is low, the mouse is too high, and the keyboard is subsequently too low as well. =\ And sometimes when I know I won't be using the mouse much, I'll just take the keyboard onto my lap and lean back in the chair to type since it's so comfy that way, but it's really hard on this computer. >_<;; It's very uncomfortable.

But yeah... =\ If the other one is wiped, I'll start using this one more... unless the other gets a better decent OS.

Emerald_Ursaring September 10th, 2004 4:41 PM

I'm not sure I'd like to count how many computers we have in our house. My dad's a computer engineer, so every member of my family gets at least one computer, and he has a ton of spare ones lying around the house:D

Mr Cat Dog September 11th, 2004 12:54 AM

I feel so lonely with my one computer :( I have one, which is the family's so I have to share it... and there's not upstairs or anything since I live in a bungalow. My Dad has a Laptop, but that's at work all the time, so it's not really at home. I'm afraid to go into all of your houses with all the computery things. I'm scared of you all now!

Sparks_67 September 11th, 2004 1:10 AM

I have 2 computers in my house ye.

Snivi September 11th, 2004 1:12 AM

I only have one but there are 2 here because my sister has one as well.

Kiri September 12th, 2004 4:58 AM

Two- my one in my bedroom, the new one (which has the internet), and the piece of ancient junk downstairs (which doesn't). My dad has a laptop but we never use it :pokeball:

NiNGi September 12th, 2004 6:09 AM
